How it works
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes a day or two, depending on how many items, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We protect the room and ventilate it.
- Each item is cleaned, degreased and any chips repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray the new white (or other colour) finish.
- Each item is left to cure, typically ready the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Common problems we fix in Whepstead
Avocado, pampas and pink suites were everywhere in the 70s and 80s, and plenty are still in good condition. It’s normally the colour that dates them, not the condition.
People generally call us when they notice something like this:
- A suite that does not match a new bathroom
- A dated coloured suite you’d like in white
- Faded or patchy colour
- Selling or letting a home with an old suite
Questions to ask before you book
- What prep work is covered
- What protection goes down before work starts
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What happens if they find more damage
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Other services in Whepstead
Whepstead: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can a coloured bath be made white?
Yes. It’s resurfaced in white where it stands.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK, so Whepstead is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How much does coloured bath resurfacing cost in Whepstead?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your IP29 postcode.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
When we would advise against a repair
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- The inside of a toilet bowl, unless we’ve agreed it will last
- Items cracked right through
- Fittings and taps (these are masked, not recoloured)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Whole bathroom suites
- Avocado, pampas and pink baths
- Coloured basins
- Coloured shower trays
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a coloured suite involves new sanitaryware, a plumber and a tiler. Refinishing it in white changes the colour without taking anything out. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
What you get with us
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
